Lotte's seat is really the last seat to accompany him, and all the officials present are Caizhou's officials, and the officials talk to each other about themselves, the county officials, and they can't insert half a sentence, so Lotte has to pour himself a drink.

Several main dishes, more than a dozen dishes, and soup were served in turn, and the servants used public spoons and chopsticks to share them with everyone at the banquet.

After three rounds of wine, five flavors of dishes, and servants brought a few refined sobering dishes and sobering soup to each table.

According to the practice of officialdom banquets, the opening is mainly a narrative between Ye Zhizhou and Shi Gou, Shi Gou Dangguan while enjoying the song and dance, while asking about the customs and customs of Caizhou, Ye Zhizhou also replied politely.

There is no intersection between the Imperial City Palace's forbidden chamberlain like Shi Gou and Ye Mengde, who is the governor of a state, in official affairs, so the atmosphere is relaxed when they talk. Now that the opening stage has passed, the officials of Caizhou have also gone to restraint, and the scene has gradually become cheerful.

After a dance, while the servants were resting, Shi Gou was the official who looked at the sky for a moment, and asked Ye Zhizhou: "Recently, on a business trip in Caizhou, I heard that everyone in Caizhou sang poems that did not hurt the heart, if life is just as first seen, and for whom the wind is exposed to the sky, it is the work of this Pingyu official who is almost recognized as a fine work in the north in front of him?" ”

Ye Zhizhou nodded lightly: "It's this person!" ”

Listening to Shi Gou's official knowing the story, Ye Mengde didn't say anything but slandered in his heart, your Imperial City Division is the one who eats and inquires about the news, I'm afraid that I will do everything in the middle of the night, so why bother to pretend to be.

Looking at Lotte who was sitting in the farthest place, Shi Gou raised the wine glass in his hand and said to Lotte: "A few days ago, there were many offences under the miscellaneous family, and I hope that Le Biao will not mind!" ”

Shi Gou was the official to toast, how dare Lotte hold up, he hurriedly got up and bowed down, and drank all the wine in his cup.

Pingyu is only more than 30 miles away from Caizhou, almost to the point of the same city of the state and county, the style of Pingyu is not prosperous, that is, the style of Caizhou is not outstanding in the Song Dynasty, and now there is a character like Lotte who has attainments in poetry, not to mention that it is a Pingyu reader, that is, the scholars of Caizhou are also honored, and follow the topic of history as officials, and a group of officials in Caizhou began to praise Lotte's copied poems.

The kabuki who were summoned to the state mansion to cheer up were also excited, and everyone looked at Lotte and played the poems that Lotte had "made".

After a song, I saw Huang Tongju stand up and bow to Shi Gou: "I've seen a nobleman!" ”

Shi Gou nodded from afar and motioned for Huang Tongju to continue.

Hearing Huang Tongju get up and speak, Lotte raised his eyebrows slightly, not knowing what this Huang Tongju was going to do.

Huang Tongju is also a scholar, and after a pause, he commented for Lotte: "The words and words of the Le Zhu Si are all excellent works, and the charm of them can be compared with Xiao Yan Xianggong and Su Zizhan in this dynasty, and the recent rumors of who is in the wind and the sky, it shocked me Caizhou Shizi, and people have to admire the talent of Le Zhusi!" ”

Hearing this, Lotte couldn't help but be shocked, this Huang Tong sentence is like an enemy, how to praise himself today, there must be a demon when things go wrong.

The officials of the Caizhou Mansion have probably heard that Huang Tongju and Lotte are not very compatible. They looked at each other and didn't understand the meaning of Huang Tong's words.

Speaking of this, Huang Tongjuan's face was straight, and the corner of his eyes squinted at Lotian, and said: "This talent has a few points to learn, but what he did in the Pingyu County Yali is a little disgraceful!" ”

What do you mean? Not only Ye Mengde raised his eyebrows, but the officials looked at each other again, Shi Gou's face did not change, and the expression on his face was just a smile, and he was used to seeing Shi Gou as an official who fought between the DPRK and China, how could he care about these pediatric fighting games of the Caizhou Mansion.

Hearing Huang Tongju's provocation, Lotte got up and bowed his hand and said, "What does the master of Tongju mean, the student doesn't understand!" ”

Hearing Lotte call himself a student, Huang Tongju snorted coldly: "You are just a county official, if you can afford to be called a student!" ”

Lotte chuckled and replied: "Cang Liao is honest and knows etiquette, food and clothing are enough and knows honor and disgrace, students have to be respected and educated by Chen County, and then they can learn to read and learn etiquette, and they have been added to the county school a month ago, if they can't be called students?" ”

Now that Lotte has the name of a county student, he can put aside the humble title of a villain and speak in the name of a scholar when he sees an official.

"A good warehouse knows etiquette, and knows honor and disgrace when you have enough food and clothing!" Huang Tongju sneered: "Pingyu that Qin Yuanwai once accused you of bullying men and women in front of Ye Zhizhou, used the case to detain and blackmail the Qin family's father and son, and took the opportunity to forcibly marry the little lady of the Qin family as his wife, and finally made you confess your guilt and withdraw from the marriage, but recently I heard that you actually forced the little lady of the Qin family to be a concubine, and your ability to bully men and women has grown more and more!" ”

The Imperial City Division has the duty of investigating the movements of officials and people, and the purpose of Huang Tongju's words is self-evident.

"Le Mou thought that he was young and romantic, and made a few slightly eye-catching lyrics that circulated among the people, the little lady of the Qin family and Le Mou were wives and concubines, but they admired Le's talent and did it willingly, where do you need to judge the old man to learn to be an aunt and make trouble!" Lotte sneered mercilessly.

"Strong words!" Huang Tongju snorted coldly, but he didn't seem to care, and said: "In April, you took the opportunity of the imperial court to promote the construction of Futian Yuan, Salesian Bureau, Anjifang and Leaky Zeyuan in various prefectures and counties, and invited the Pingyu gentry to donate money and property, and even held an Oiran Contest to raise good money!" ”

Speaking of this, Huang Tongju aggravated his tone: "But in the end, the errand of building Futian Yuan, Salesian Bureau and Leaky Zeyuan was assigned by you Pingyu County Ya and various temples in this county. ”

The officials in the public are all people who have been in the officialdom for a long time, and they instantly understood that this Huang Tong judgment meant something, and on the surface it was Lotte, but secretly it was pointing directly at Chen Zhixian.

"Lord Huang is very concerned about Pingyu, and Le Mou has thanked the people of Pingyu for passing the judgment!" How could Lotte hear the meaning of the words of the Huang Tong judgment, there was no trace of respect between the words, and he clasped his fists in the sky: "The good governance of the local monks and temples in Pingyu is willing to respond to the good governance of the imperial court, and it is the embodiment of the good and good people of my Pingyu County, as for the good money that has been raised, it is clearly lying in the treasury of the county government, and has not been diverted for other purposes. ”

Shi Gou was the official who went down to Pingyu to investigate Lotte's details, and naturally he was clear about these things about Lotte.

After a pause, Lotte said earnestly: "Whether it is to implement the good governance of the imperial court, or for the reconstruction after the fire, the gentry and the people of Li are all enthusiastic donations, and the merchants who supply masonry materials do not seek profits. Speaking of this, Lotte looked at Huang Tongju, and said in a somewhat mocking tone: "It's Lord Huang's brother who has been doing business in Pingyu for many years and has accumulated a lot of wealth, but when Pingyu is in trouble, he has nothing to do, and he has ended up with the nickname of the iron rooster!" ”

If other people were teased by Lotte like this, they would have already been red-faced, but Huang Tongju has been in the officialdom for a long time, and he has already cultivated a cheeky skin, and he was ridiculed by Lotte like this, and he didn't have the slightest look of surprise, staring at Lotte and saying: "You Pingyu County suffered a fire, but the foundation is there, since you have raised good money, how can you reach out to the court to ask for relief, and what is its purpose!" ”

As the eyes and ears of the Son of Heaven, in addition to not having the power to judge, the affairs in charge are extremely complicated, this group of inner servants who have little words, in order to show favor in front of the official family, do everything they can, as long as they smell a trace of fish, they can't wait to dig three feet of soil to get something to invite merit.

The officials of Caizhou also understand it now, Huang Tong's sentence is not separated from the word money, which can be described as sinister, as long as Lotte is not careful, he will fall into the trap of Huang Tong's judgment, which will attract the investigation of the officials of the Imperial City Division.

Lotte replied: "The relief of the imperial court is extremely important to Pingyu, Pingyu has a fire all over the city and half of the shops destroyed, how much money and taxes have been lost in half a year, and Pingyu embankments, bridges and roads are aging and unbearable to walk, and many matters such as repairing embankments, paving roads, and building bridges require money. As the saying goes, thunder, rain and dew are all the grace of the king, how is the relief of the imperial court not the rain and dew grace of the official family who loves the people like a son! ”

Immediately, Lotte snorted coldly again and said: "If according to Lord Huang's words, the imperial court does not issue relief to the public opinion, the affected people will not only feel cold, but also resentful of the official family. Huang Tong's judgment is not afraid of moving the foundation of my Great Song Dynasty? ”

"You ......" Huang Tongju was speechless when he was refuted by Lotte, but he found that he didn't seem to have any evidence to hold Lotte, so he just snorted coldly and sat down.

The reputation of the official family on the left, the common people of Li on the right, this big hat was buckled by Lotte with a lot of weight, although Huang Tongju was a veteran of officialdom, he had to lose.

How could Lotte not know the sinister intentions of Huang Tong's sentence, but he was not in the state capital, and he didn't know the details of Huang Tong's sentence, so he couldn't grasp his sore feet.

Shi Gou, who is accustomed to seeing the court's sharp tongues, doesn't care about the fight between the two. When the two of them fell, they turned their eyes to Lotte and said: "Tomorrow our family will go back to Bianliang to resume their lives, and the master of this company is also an elegant person who likes to chant poetry, is Mr. Le willing to give a poem for us to bring to the master of the company for tasting?" ”

When Ye Zhizhou heard this, he looked at Lotte. Although Ye Zhizhou is also a person who is good at dancing and writing, he knows that if he is compared to poetry, he is inferior to Lotte in all aspects, and Lotte is good at planning, for these two reasons, the idea of transferring Lotte to his side was born.

Lotte knew what Governor Ye meant, and he wanted to attend such an occasion to decorate the façade. got up and walked out from his seat, and arched his hand: "Since the noble person loves the student, the student might as well be respectful!" ”

Although this is the case, but how to make this poem, Lotte is worried in his heart, I learned from Tian Wei's mouth that it is Jiawang Zhao Kai who promoted the Imperial City Division, although this prince has not left many records in history, but he has a title of the highest status, so he naturally can't fool around.

Those who have otaku in the countryside, and the tone of farewell is obviously not appropriate; The petty bourgeoisie drinks flower wine, the veteran sits at the head of the bed, the educated youth Yonggu self-guided tour, the emperor is sad in the palace, the remaining women are at home, Lori marries the prince, the celebrity husband dies early, and the many emotions of the younger sister in the Qinglou are also not suitable for the occasion.

Lotte couldn't help but make a mistake in his heart.
